xanax and alcohol
by wino, Jun 22, 2007 12:00AM
I've been an alcoholic for thirty years; I'm currently 43. I've also had chronic insomnia my entire life and started xanax for sleep a couple years back. The last two times I mixed xanax and alcohol my husband told me that when I came to bed I was hallcinating. This frightens the hell out of me. I just read a post re: mixing and realize now that I could easily die, especially considering my relatively high dose (2mg) and definately high intake of alcohol.
I can't seem to get this wine monkey off my back. AA is NOT for me.

How about outpatient treatment? I know alcohol is dangerous stopping cold turkey. Get a doc's help and at least get clean. Oh and the Xanax you are taking too - you need to taper off of that. Talk to a doc about both - maybe when you get clean you might feel up to getting help in other ways. Hard to make good choices when we are high. Trust me I have first hand experience.
All my best,
